‘Glee’ season 5, episode 4 video: Adam Lambert, Chris Colfer on ‘A Katy or a Gaga’ story
Just in case you have not had enough previews yet for Thursday night’s “Glee” episode “A Katy or a Gaga,” we’ve got another one below that gives you a little bit of a better sense as to what the story for this particular episode is going to be both at McKinley, and also in New York City.
Let’s start with the part of the episode that you more than likely care little about: The McKinley story of “are you a Katy or a Gaga?” that we see play out as a result of the latest assignment. The idea for this seems to be to bring the fans of the two artists together, which is good since there has long been the short of chest-puffing battle between the two fan bases thanks to the success that they have each achieved with their respective music. Personally, we still feel like this idea is a little silly, especially since the title almost suggests that the two are being pit against each other in some sort of showdown.
Now as for New York, things are becoming much more interesting. Both Adam Lambert and Chris Colfer below explain what happens when it comes to Elliott “Starchild” Gilbert auditioning for Kurt’s new band that he is putting together. He is desperately on the hunt for new musicians to take part in the group, but Adam is the only one who turns up. Just as you would expect, he is great … but possibly too great. Adam hits all of his notes, and in the process manages to make Kurt feel extremely jealous about his own talent since here is a guy who has a huge voice, designs his own clothes, and is unafraid to be a big performer. Plus, it took about two seconds for Santana to love him based on his audition.
Regardless of what happens between these characters in this episode, this story involving Starchild and Kurt is going to play out over the coming weeks as the two try to coexist with each other. Right now the disdain feels very one-sided, but couldn’t Elliott figure it out at some point that Kurt’s a little jealous?
In real life, Chris and the rest of the cast have nothing but great things to say about Adam. You can see some more on that in the video here, and we’ll have more news before Thursday’s big episode.
